I have files in my Documents folder that are causing the page to freeze when
I try to enter it, and then I need to press down ctrl/alt buttons and then
delete at the same time..I then get the Task Manager page, which tells me
that the folder is 'not responding'. How can I delete all the files and
subfolders, since I can't get in to delete them within? A real dilemna.
Thanks for your help in advance.
 
Try deleting them at the Command line.
Type CMD.EXE on the Start-Run line,
Then type CD\ to put you in the root directory,
Change to the partition your directory is in,
Type: ATTRIB -S -H -R *.*/s (name of directory)
Then type: RD /S (name of directory)
